It sure does! I had one of those "sell it this afternoon, air it at 6 a.m." sales yesterday. I couldn't get it done because I was on the air, and my other voices weren't available. The SAS crew came to my rescue!
We are right around 180 clusters now
That's awesome, Jennifer!!!
Updates as of 2/24/12:
We now have Swap A Spotters in EVERY STATE!!! We have MANY in Canada and England and 2 in Australia! We have started a 2nd list and it's rapidly growing! This was to keep bulk email messages FREE and to avoid any local/regional station competition and/or infringing on others territories in our attempt to keep this service semi-exclusive. We have also gotten some attention from a group on Facebook, too, but we continuously gain more members because of RadioSalesCafe and we are grateful for your guys everyday! The more the merrier! If anyone is ever interested - please let me know!!!! We are still growing strong!!!!!
Update as of 8/27/12:
The SAS now has members in each of the 50 States PLUS...Canada, England, Ireland, Cayman Islands, Australia, Bhutan (South Asia), and more being added each week!
A very sweet system indeed - much work and organization goes into this to benefit all - kudos to the team at SAS!
Just updating you all! We had 10 new clusters join in the last week!
Jennifer, I retired from covering auto racing, but would like to get involved, on the off chance that what goes around, comes around, since I still produce a syndicated feature each week called Radio-Road-Test. I used to freelance for CBS News, Radio for a few years. I could be available one day/week, and can send dry tracks via MP3 or I could set up a folder in my FTP. Any interest?

The SAS now has members in each of the 50 States PLUS...Canada, England, Ireland, Cayman Islands, Australia, Bhutan (South Asia), and more being added each week! We now have over 310 Clusters!!!!
SO sorry I missed this message! We would love to have you! We do it via email - if you are still interested in joining let me know!
AN UPDATE:
The Swap A Spot Network currently has over 325 CLUSTERS World-Wide! Including voices from ALL 50 States in the USA, 4 Provinces in Canada, 8 clusters in England, 4 in Australia, as well as voices from Cayman Islands, Nigeria, Ireland, Denmark, Barbados, and Bhutan (South Asia). THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!!
Great Idea, except that our little AM station only has one voice for production (and he has a wekend job in Boston at a sports station). Obviously we could use the service but our production guy will kill me if I add to his load.
If you find you want to join just let me know
Hi Jennifer,
Just an email wondering how I could go about joining Swap A Spot. I am in Texas, mainly working in engineering now. Don't use my voice as much as I did, but am always looking for the opportunity. Will also be looking for some help on my end ( I am currently helping to start 2 projects - 1 internet based and one terrestrial.) Thanks!
